Evaluating tooth strontium and barium as indicators of weaning age in Pacific walruses

Lactation length and weaning age provide important information about maternal investment, which can reflect the health and nutritional status of the mother, as well as broader reproductive strategies in mammals. Calcium‐normalized strontium (Sr) and barium (Ba) concentrations in the growth layers of...
